Bell official testifies under immunity

LOS ANGELES 
The Southern California city of Bell's administrative services director says she compiled the false information that was given to a resident who had demanded to know how much city officials were paid.

Lourdes Garcia testified Tuesday in Los Angeles that she compiled the information at the direction of former City Manager Robert Rizzo.

She says she felt uncomfortable because she knew the figures she provided reflected only a fraction of what Rizzo and other top officials were paid.

Garcia, who has been granted immunity by prosecutors, is testifying at a hearing to determine if there's enough evidence to send Bell's mayor and five other past and present City Council members to trial on charges of looting the working-class city of millions of dollars.
